Description: This photograph by local artist Tom Sauerwein captures a scene that feels both intimate and symbolic. A single deep-purple tulip leans elegantly from a crimson glass bottle, its delicate arc contrasted by a set of ornate scales draped with fine chains and jewelry. Behind them, the soft backdrop of weathered books and a red velvet box creates a sense of quiet nostalgia. The deep reds and purples invite reflection on themes of beauty, balance, and time. Sauerwein’s eye for composition and color brings together the poetic and the precise, transforming simple objects into a story about harmony and fragility. The image feels still, yet alive, a perfect example of his ability to find art in the everyday.
